Hello Group,

I installed my tomcat apacke web server on windows xp professional.
When I type

localhost:8080 in my Firefox browser on the same machine I am able to
see the default
tomcat page, which certiies that my tomcat is working fine and port
8080 is working for web server.

However, if I type the same on same machine

localhost:8080

it first gave me server can not be contacted and when I removed
my setting for

localhost\\8080, it now gives

404 error, <description: The requested resource is not available>

Can someone tell me settings which I need to make or IE is not the
trusted browser for tomcat server? I am perplexed.

Thanks in advance.

Make sure that this is being recognized as a URL.
If necessary give it a protocol prefix.

Is there a proxy? You would have to make sure
Bypass proxy server for local addresses
was checked.

Correct you typo and explain what you mean by "removed my setting".

it now gives

404 error, <description: The requested resource is not available>
